I love this game's outfitting system!

No really, I do. After flying my stock Viper Mk IV outside the station I had bought it, I went to outfit it.

But the station I bought it at was missing a few parts. Namely an A4 shield generator & a something else.

Thus began a two hour hunt for those two parts. I scoured the galaxy map, searching for high tech stations, and eventually, after visiting many platforms near their main stars, I took a 70,000ly flight to the second star of a system, and, voilà, one something else!

But still no shields. So, another hour, more hunting. Many new systems visited. I found it eventually. Now I get to haul my Viper back home. :)

Thanks FD, this was great. Having to hunt down parts adds to the galactic experience. :D

In moderation it does. But sometimes, in certain areas, the search can become pretty desperate.
I learned that in High Tech systems with multiple large High Tech stations the chances are very good that what is not in stock with one station you will find at one of the others.

I wish it was possible to buy specific info about availability of modules in other systems.
Something akin to buying system info or trade info, but for specific modules.

Feel free to use this website. If the search annoys you, this site helps narrow down your search. Fairly mobile-friendly, too. :)

Yes I know those websites.
I think I know all of them.

I prefer not to use stuff outside of the game.
I would like there to be more payed-for in-game information systems, or perhaps other ways to make more informed decisions.

Oh I understand now. Yeah, maybe you could start to see ship manufacturing patterns, imports & exports similar to commodities?
